Slightly boozy, very enjoyable tour - The tour is a lovely one way to spend a Saturday afternoon. We went as a couple and found ourselves amongst some very nice people and our superb hosts Katie and Ed, who were so friendly, funny and lovely. The tour is definitely a unique way to see parts of London south of the Thames (Waterloo to Bermondsey ish), with the bikes and stops for gin (and tonics) being very well received. It definitely suits those who are very interested in the ins and outs of gin history, and how that links into London’s history, but was also highly enjoyable for us who weren’t as keen gin connoisseurs as others. Would definitely recommended if not the the gin tour then others with tally ho!

A unique gin-lovers experience - What a wonderful experience! A leisurely cycle through Southbank learning the history of London and gin whilst enjoying complementary drinks from the mobile bar. Shibby was a fantastic guide who gave us a great day full of interesting facts and information. He also kept us all safe on the London roads although most of the tour was along the quiet leafy back streets so we could just enjoy the scenery. The bikes were lovely, simple, old style Pashleys just made for cruising. Would definitely recommend this unique experience to locals and visitors alike.

Cycle, see, gin, repeat - It was a great tour, Shibby was a fabulous guide as we biked through the streets of London. Lots of local gin history, a stop at Maltby street market and good libations along the way. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a unique experience in London.

Fantastic afternoon of gin and history - I had a great afternoon with the Tally Ho Gin Safari team (really sorry that I've forgotten the names but you know who you were!). We covered a really interesting route around London south of the Thames, learning about the history of gin and its connection with that part of the city. The guides were both informative and entertaining and there were plentiful stops en route for gin tasting as well as the Maltby Street market for additional food and drink. The bikes were fun to ride and provided a great way to see the city. Joining instructions for the tour were crystal clear. Highly recommended.
